EYE2025*

Thursday, February 17, 2011

This week Late Night Tv got a taste of whats in store for the near future via Brooklyn's own Theophilus London on Letterman & L.A. rap crew Odd Future (aka Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All, or OFWGKTA)on Jimmy Fallon. 2 very different styles, from opposite coasts invading the airwaves. As the homie Mos said over & over at the end of Odd Future's set "SWAG"... more coming soon. Let me know what u think.

Off his first solo project IllumiNessence gives us EYE2025*CHAPTER1. He takes us on a dark, rhythmic exploration of our modern "Digital World." The viral piece was shot in Harajuku Tokyo and edited by Rob Lee. This version of "Digital World" can be downloaded at https://www.onerpm.com/eye2025

The remix, cooked up by Jack Deezl out of Philadelphia, and also features the other-worldly vocals of Brooklyn based sensation Raye 6.

The dark minimalistic electro Deezl brings, perfectly captures illuminNessence's ominous message of the future -- a future around the corner where we are completely entrenched in the digital world we've created. We rapidly lose our ability to truly feel, truly love and truly live. Raye 6's eerily beautiful hook compliments the apocalyptic feel of "Digital World".
Lyrics like "Spend hours on the internet/everything is at your fingertips/'Stead of telling her you love her you textin' it/Living in a Digital World."

Perfectly illuminates the age we're living in and are quickly driving towards.

Once again, illuminNessence shows us the bleak yet beautiful world of 2025, a future just around the corner. "Digital World" [Jack Deezl Remix] is available now on iTunes at http://bit.ly/dHea0V
